Exactly.
The press room was a whos who of media today and Willie got his own piece on the Offiah show.
The facts speak louder then bitter jealous Hull FC fans.

Yeah he did and looked even better on tele he could have scored that try but his pass to watts was pure magic love him to bits already

Not jealous at all. Mason will be a good signing and is a high profile player. My only issue was you calling him the most high profile player in world rugby. That clearly isn't true. Before he signed for Rovers were there many things being written about him - no there wasn't. He was doing ok for the Cowboys but not getting close to rep footy and not really on the radar.

He seems to be a big deal over here for the time being and had you said the most high profile player in SL I might have agreed.

There has never been a reaction to a player coming over in the SL era like what there has been to Mason's arrival.
Beckham doesnt play for England or in the Premiership anymore and is still a higher profile then every player bar Rooney in England any probably 3rd to Messi and Ronaldo in worldwide interest.
Its an opinion that most Rovers fans share and most FC fans disagree with and at the end of the day its difficult to prove or disprove either way.

Willie Mason is big news in RL circles in the UK....But face facts, if Wayne Rooney stubbed his toe hed get more press coverage than out entire game does.
Genuinely happy that Mason had a good game. Regardless of the overseas thingy.....anyone who can get a few more hacks covering the sport has got to be good for the game.

SL profile I would not argue against. Not world rugby though, the aussies don't care about SL.

yep...I had a mate text me from London the other day asking who this Mason geezer was...apparently he had 5 pages of coverage in the Evening Standard, an 8 page colour supplement in METRO and the whole back page of the FT

There you go then

Was it Dullard Massager?

Disappointing crowd today?????...maybe, but certainly not disapointed..

nope...he's obviously off nightshift work at the moment

...the minute we got a moderator on the NRL boards it was like he'd managed to hack my account and put himself on "ignore"


I won't get any credit from the prit-sticked one....but it would seem that my exagerated guestimate at 196,500 for the opening rounds of the NRL wasn't far off the mark......unless the puppies let me down this evening. I reckon this could be the game of the round......

I'll be interested to see how the Dogs get on later actually.

You gotta think it will be an upset if they beat the Tigpies but maybe if Benji has 'other things' on his mind (ie [uallegedly[/u doing something he shouldn't have done) you never know.

Keep Marshall quiet....and they could do it

And what is Ur point here hang on don't we all start of on post one and work our way up, get a life Ur boring

Like i have said previously look at the constructive posts your fellow fans put on your own forum most of it is good although a lot is a load of cr@p, anyway comeonyouull how many years did you play our beloved game for, or you just like half of the FC fans never even picked up a ball in they life, most posts are constructive and they seem to know a bit about the game, but spouting on about finances your sounding like your wifey Mrs B

That could seriously limit numbers on here!

Not a bad crowd really, but as mentioned still short of the break even figure which must be of concern?
How many season passes have been sold in total?...even with all the hype of Mason there can't of been that many 'walk up' supporters?

2 Home games against teams with little or no away support to date, 2500+ extra fans through the gates...about 40 grand more in revenue....it was never going to happen overnight.
You'll be fine......you may not make the 10k average this year, but you'll go close

think the irony was lost on you ginge lol,he was stating that a large percent of the posters post was on the fc forum

Yep, please note was on the Fc forum Andrea to much i admit found it amusing to say the least. Now learnt my lesson after talking to other forum users at KR yesterday FC just cant take a joke or constructive banter.....

think you will find some of us can,just the same for us on here

Hope so, despite the banter Rovers being around is good or the city.
Can't see 10k being averaged any time soon in all honesty, a break even figure of 9k would be more realistic, things need to improve off the field more than on it to make the difference IMO.

Thanks for your support

Ok what have you done with Gutterfax and are you expecting a ransom.
